This a good place for a cheap price, half of the competition is asking. Just your basic hotel room…read moreking size firm bed, TV, free WiFi, and a large bathroom with great water pressure for the shower. We have been enjoying this motel for over a week. There is a Asian message parlor next door and a excellent Thai restaurant a little bit farther in the next motel area. The staff were very polite and helpful. Although it is near the Hwy the room is quite. There is a gym and laundry facilities in the motel. Mostly army personal and contractors are the customers. There is also a banquet hall for rent.

This is actually a fairly decent hotel to stay at for the area. Most of the other hotels are very…read moreexpensive to stay at and this hotel costs less but still is of good quality. While not perfect, the service was excellent and the room was nice and clean. The bathrooms are huge and the room was nice. They have your basic tvs, fridges, etc. it's is most def worth the price, in my opinion. It is also next to a nice Thai restaurant that has good food. The only downfall is that it is in the middle of town and traffic can be horrible at times and if you want to drive a certain way you will have to wait a while. Not their fault, but that's the reality.

Big chairs, fun artwork, etc. The bar area is in the center of the restaurant with loads of places to sit. There are at least 12 tv's with all sports imaginable playing along with ice road truckers :) Something for everyone! Perfect start- warm spicy salsa and creamy beans. And the chips are perfect! We ordered the ribeye tampiqueño, which comes with rice, beans, guacamole, pico de gallo, one cheese enchilada and fresh tortillas. This steak is FLAVORFUL!! The cheese enchilada was perfectly balanced with loads of creamy cheese in a pillowy soft tortilla. I highly recommend. To finish there is an ice cream machine by the door. Perfect experience.

We've visited three times over the past year, hoping each time would be better than the last. We…read moregenuinely want this place to be great. The drinks are festive and generous--we usually downsize so we can pay closer attention to the food. The salsa is fresh (though quite spicy), and the other two dipping sauces were fine. The multicolored tortilla chips (red, green, and yellow) appear to be store-bought. One of us always orders the nachos; the other always orders the burritos. The nachos have come out burnt on two visits and soupy on others--something we hadn't encountered before. The meat in both dishes has repeatedly arrived with an off color that concerned us. On our third visit, the person who had the burritos became ill afterward. We're not sure if the owner is the "Viejo Tony" the name suggests, but the desire for the restaurant to succeed is real. We still hope things improve.
